Rangers' Henrik Lundqvist: Starting against Leafs
Lundqvist will tend the twine for Thursday's Original Six matchup in Toronto, Chris Johnston of Sportsnet reports.
Analysis:
Despite taking a tough shootout loss in his last outing, King Henrik has been on fire in his last eight starts, posting a 6-1-1 record to go along with a 1.97 GAA and .940 save percentage. Lundqvist has put up these performances against mostly pretty average offensive teams, and Thursday he will take on a Toronto team that's looking like an offensive juggernaut. Over their last five, the Leafs have scored an average of 4.2 goals per game.
